i can always count on Spike Lee to capture Queen Angela Bassett in the perfect frame and the perfect light.

As he has said about her,

So regal, so majestic

like hell, yes. she is. that protest scene lives in my head rent free, sir.

Happy Birthday to Emma Amos (1937–2020) who was born on this day in 1937!

Amos is known for her bold and colorful mixed media figurative works that incorporate painting, printmaking, textile, and photo collage. Her works often depict women flying or falling, athletes running, and Black figures, whether historical or contemporary. Deeply charged with feminist politics and focusing on racial and cultural fabrics, Amos challenged sexism and racism in our society.

Amos said that her interest in figuration came from a growing awareness of “of black people and that black is beautiful and there’s nothing wrong with it; and that it’s something to remark upon and to make a record of.” (from her 1968 interview with Al Murray.)

*****************************

Kolaj Magazine, a full color, print magazine, exists to show how the world of collage is rich, layered, and thick with complexity. By remixing history and culture, collage artists forge new thinking. To understand collage is to reshape one's thinking of art history and redefine the canon of visual culture that informs the present.
